What are the climate characteristics of the Minor Snow solar term?1. During the Minor Snow solar term, the northern part of the southern region begins to enter winter, presenting an early winter scene.2. The Minor Snow solar term is a solar term with a higher frequency of cold waves and strong cold air activities. When under the influence of strong cold air, it is often accompanied by the first snowfall in winter. 3. Three signs of Minor Snow: the rainbow disappears; the air above the sky rises and the earth’s air descends; and the world becomes closed and winter begins. This means that the temperature has dropped, and it will snow more in the north instead of raining, so rainbows will no longer be visible. Also, because the yang energy in the sky rises and the yin energy underground falls, the yin and yang are out of communication, and the heaven and earth are disconnected, so all things lose their vitality, which means that the severe cold winter is coming. |
